回転システムRotating system
　本発明は、回転システムに関する。 The present invention relates to a rotation system.
　回転機械の一例として、例えばガスタービンは、空気を吸気して圧縮する圧縮機と、圧縮された空気に燃料を噴射して高温・高圧のガスを生成する燃焼器と、燃焼器で生成されたガスで駆動されるタービンと、から構成される。さらに、圧縮機とタービンは同一の回転軸で接続されている。
　一般的に、回転軸にねじれやたわみが生じる可能性を回避するために、圧縮機とタービンとの間の距離は可能な限り短く設定されることが望ましい。 As an example of a rotating machine, for example, a gas turbine is generated by a compressor that sucks and compresses air, a combustor that injects fuel into the compressed air to generate high-temperature and high-pressure gas, and a combustor. And a turbine driven by gas. Furthermore, the compressor and the turbine are connected by the same rotating shaft.
In general, in order to avoid the possibility of twisting or bending of the rotating shaft, it is desirable to set the distance between the compressor and the turbine as short as possible.
　このような事情に鑑みて、例えば特許文献１に示す技術がこれまでに知られている。すなわち、特許文献１に記載された技術では、モーターと圧縮機、及びクラッチにおけるそれぞれの出力軸をカップリングで互いに接続し、回転駆動力を伝搬する構成とされている。 In view of such circumstances, for example, the technique shown in Patent Document 1 has been known so far. That is, in the technique described in Patent Document 1, the output shafts of the motor, the compressor, and the clutch are connected to each other by coupling to transmit the rotational driving force.

　しかしながら、保守上の要請や、スペース等の制約から、圧縮機とタービンとの間の離間距離を長く確保せざるを得ない場合が考えられる。そのような場合、特許文献１のように、延長された回転軸をカップリングで接続するのみでは、回転軸で発生する振動が過大になり、機器の動作に不具合を生じる可能性がある。 However, there may be a case where it is necessary to ensure a long separation distance between the compressor and the turbine due to maintenance requirements and space constraints. In such a case, as in Patent Document 1, if the extended rotating shaft is simply connected by coupling, vibration generated on the rotating shaft becomes excessive, which may cause a malfunction in the operation of the device.
　本発明は、上記事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、２つの回転機械の間の離間距離を保つとともに、２つの回転機械の回転軸同士を接続する中間軸に生じる振動を抑制することができる回転システムを提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can maintain a separation distance between two rotating machines and suppress vibrations generated in an intermediate shaft that connects the rotating shafts of the two rotating machines.

　本実施形態における回転システム１００としては、例としてガスタービンが挙げられる。
　図１は、ガスタービンとしての回転システム１００の構成を示す模式図である。図１に示すように、回転システム１００は、空気を吸気して圧縮する圧縮機８０（第一回転機械）と、圧縮された空気に燃料を噴射して高温・高圧のガスを生成する燃焼器（不図示）と、燃焼器で生成されたガスで駆動されるタービン９０（第二回転機械）と、圧縮機８０とタービン９０のそれぞれの回転軸を互いに接続する中間軸装置１と、を備えている。 An example of the rotating system 100 in the present embodiment is a gas turbine.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a configuration of a rotation system 100 as a gas turbine. As shown in FIG. 1, a rotating system 100 includes a compressor 80 (first rotating machine) that sucks and compresses air, and a combustor that injects fuel into the compressed air to generate high-temperature and high-pressure gas. (Not shown), a turbine 90 (second rotary machine) driven by gas generated by a combustor, and an intermediate shaft device 1 that connects the rotary shafts of the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 to each other. ing.
　中間軸装置１は、回転システム１００を設置するに当たって、圧縮機８０とタービン９０とを互いに所定の距離だけ離間させる目的で設けられるものである。すなわち、保守作業上の要請や、設置スペースの制約等から、圧縮機８０とタービン９０の間に一定の距離を維持したい場合等がこれに該当する。 The intermediate shaft device 1 is provided for the purpose of separating the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 from each other by a predetermined distance when the rotation system 100 is installed. That is, the case where it is desired to maintain a certain distance between the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 due to a request for maintenance work, restrictions on installation space, and the like.
　圧縮機８０は、軸線回りに回転する第一回転軸８１を備えている。第一回転軸８１は、圧縮機８０の内部で、軸線方向における互いに異なる位置に設けられた２つのラジアル軸受８２，８３と、１つのスラスト軸受８４とによって軸線回りに回転可能に支持されている。 The compressor 80 includes a first rotating shaft 81 that rotates about an axis. The first rotating shaft 81 is supported inside the compressor 80 by two radial bearings 82 and 83 provided at different positions in the axial direction and a thrust bearing 84 so as to be rotatable around the axial line. .
　タービン９０は、軸線回りに回転する第二回転軸９１を備えている。第二回転軸９１は、タービン９０の内部で、軸線方向における互いに異なる位置に設けられた２つのラジアル軸受９２，９３と、１つのスラスト軸受９４とによって軸線回りに回転可能に支持されている。 The turbine 90 includes a second rotating shaft 91 that rotates about an axis. The second rotary shaft 91 is supported in the turbine 90 by two radial bearings 92 and 93 provided at different positions in the axial direction and a thrust bearing 94 so as to be rotatable around the axis.
　中間軸装置１は、軸線回りに回転する中間軸本体１０を備えている。中間軸本体１０は、中間軸装置１の内部で、軸線方向における互いに異なる位置に設けられた一対のラジアル軸受１３，１４（軸受装置）と、タービン９０側に近接する位置に設けられた１つのスラスト軸受１５（軸受装置）とによって軸線回りに回転可能に支持されている。
　上述の第一回転軸８１と、第二回転軸９１と、中間軸本体１０とは、いずれも同一の直線状に延在している。 The intermediate shaft device 1 includes an intermediate shaft main body 10 that rotates about an axis. The intermediate shaft main body 10 includes a pair of radial bearings 13 and 14 (bearing devices) provided at different positions in the axial direction inside the intermediate shaft device 1 and one provided at a position close to the turbine 90 side. It is supported by a thrust bearing 15 (bearing device) so as to be rotatable around the axis.
The first rotating shaft 81, the second rotating shaft 91, and the intermediate shaft main body 10 all extend in the same linear shape.
　さらに、圧縮機８０の第一回転軸８１と、中間軸装置１の中間軸本体１０との間には、第一緩衝軸１１が設けられている。同様にして、中間軸装置１の中間軸本体１０と、タービン９０の第二回転軸９１との間には、第二緩衝軸１２が設けられている。 Furthermore, a first buffer shaft 11 is provided between the first rotary shaft 81 of the compressor 80 and the intermediate shaft main body 10 of the intermediate shaft device 1. Similarly, the second buffer shaft 12 is provided between the intermediate shaft main body 10 of the intermediate shaft device 1 and the second rotating shaft 91 of the turbine 90.
　圧縮機８０の第一回転軸８１と、タービン９０の第二回転軸９１と、中間軸装置１の中間軸本体１０とは、上述の第一緩衝軸１１、第二緩衝軸１２を介して互いに一体に接続されて回転体Ｓを形成している。 The first rotating shaft 81 of the compressor 80, the second rotating shaft 91 of the turbine 90, and the intermediate shaft main body 10 of the intermediate shaft device 1 are mutually connected via the first buffer shaft 11 and the second buffer shaft 12. The rotating body S is formed by being integrally connected.
　回転体Ｓの構成について、以下に詳述する。
　圧縮機８０の第一回転軸８１と、第一緩衝軸１１とは、第一カップリング７１によって互いの軸線方向に接続されている。第一カップリング７１は、第一回転軸８１におけるタービン９０側の端部と、該端部に軸線方向に対向するように配置された第一緩衝軸１１における圧縮機８０側の端部とを接続している。第一カップリング７１としては、それぞれ軸カップリングの態様として一般的に知られた、筒型軸カップリングやフランジ型軸カップリングが好適である。これら筒型軸カップリングやフランジ型軸カップリングは、互いに接続される２つの軸の軸線が概ね同一直線状に配置される場合に頻繁に用いられる。 The configuration of the rotating body S will be described in detail below.
The first rotating shaft 81 of the compressor 80 and the first buffer shaft 11 are connected to each other in the axial direction by a first coupling 71. The first coupling 71 includes an end portion on the turbine 90 side of the first rotating shaft 81 and an end portion on the compressor 80 side of the first buffer shaft 11 disposed so as to face the end portion in the axial direction. Connected. As the first coupling 71, a cylindrical shaft coupling and a flanged shaft coupling, which are generally known as a mode of the shaft coupling, respectively, are suitable. These cylindrical shaft couplings and flange-type shaft couplings are frequently used when the axes of two shafts connected to each other are arranged substantially in the same straight line.
　さらに、第一緩衝軸１１におけるタービン９０側の端部は、中間軸装置１の中間軸本体１０における圧縮機８０側の端部に対して、第二カップリング７２を介して接続されている。第二カップリング７２は、公知のダイヤフラムカップリングによって構成されている。ダイヤフラムカップリングは、互いに接続される２つの軸の軸心が、回転中に互いにずれる可能性が想定される場合に、該ずれを吸収することを目的として用いられる。 Furthermore, the end portion on the turbine 90 side in the first buffer shaft 11 is connected to the end portion on the compressor 80 side in the intermediate shaft main body 10 of the intermediate shaft device 1 via the second coupling 72. The second coupling 72 is configured by a known diaphragm coupling. The diaphragm coupling is used for the purpose of absorbing the shift when the shaft centers of two shafts connected to each other are assumed to be displaced from each other during rotation.
　同様にして、タービン９０の第二回転軸９１における圧縮機８０側の端部と、第二緩衝軸１２におけるタービン９０側の端部とは、第四カップリング７４によって互いの軸線方向に接続されている。第四カップリング７４は、第一カップリング７１と同様に、筒型軸カップリングやフランジ型軸カップリングによって構成される。 Similarly, the end portion on the compressor 80 side of the second rotating shaft 91 of the turbine 90 and the end portion on the turbine 90 side of the second buffer shaft 12 are connected to each other in the axial direction by the fourth coupling 74. ing. Similar to the first coupling 71, the fourth coupling 74 is configured by a cylindrical shaft coupling or a flange-type shaft coupling.
　さらに、第二緩衝軸１２における圧縮機８０側の端部は、中間軸装置１の中間軸本体１０におけるタービン９０側の端部に対して、第三カップリング７３を介して接続されている。第三カップリング７３は、第二カップリングと同様に、ダイヤフラムカップリングによって構成されている。 Furthermore, the end portion on the compressor 80 side of the second buffer shaft 12 is connected to the end portion on the turbine 90 side of the intermediate shaft main body 10 of the intermediate shaft device 1 via the third coupling 73. The 3rd coupling 73 is comprised by the diaphragm coupling similarly to the 2nd coupling.
　第一回転軸８１，第二回転軸９１，中間軸本体１０，第一緩衝軸１１，第二緩衝軸１２は、以上のように互いに接続されて回転体Ｓを形成する。回転体Ｓは、軸線方向、及び径方向のずれを許容しながら、一体となって所定の方向に回転する。これにより、圧縮機８０における第一回転軸８１の回転運動は、中間軸装置１の中間軸本体１０を介して、タービン９０における第二回転軸９１に伝搬される。 The first rotating shaft 81, the second rotating shaft 91, the intermediate shaft main body 10, the first buffer shaft 11, and the second buffer shaft 12 are connected to each other as described above to form the rotating body S. The rotating body S rotates integrally in a predetermined direction while allowing deviations in the axial direction and the radial direction. Thereby, the rotational motion of the first rotating shaft 81 in the compressor 80 is propagated to the second rotating shaft 91 in the turbine 90 via the intermediate shaft main body 10 of the intermediate shaft device 1.
　次に、回転システム１００に設けられた潤滑油供給部６０について説明する。図１に示すように、潤滑油供給部６０は、注油管６１と、排油管６２とによって構成されている。さらに、注油管６１は、注油管路６１Ａ，６１Ｂ，６１Ｃ，６１Ｄ，６１Ｅ，６１Ｆを介して、それぞれラジアル軸受１３，１４，８２，８３，９２，９３に接続されている。すなわち、潤滑油供給部６０は、圧縮機８０と，タービン９０と，中間軸装置１との間で共用される。 Next, the lubricating oil supply unit 60 provided in the rotation system 100 will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the lubricating oil supply unit 60 includes an oil supply pipe 61 and an oil discharge pipe 62. Furthermore, the oil supply pipe 61 is connected to the radial bearings 13, 14, 82, 83, 92, and 93 via oil supply pipe lines 61A, 61B, 61C, 61D, 61E, and 61F, respectively. That is, the lubricating oil supply unit 60 is shared among the compressor 80, the turbine 90, and the intermediate shaft device 1.
　注油管６１には上述の軸受をそれぞれ潤滑するための潤滑油が流通している。注油管６１を流通した潤滑油は、それぞれの軸受に接続された注油管路６１Ａ，６１Ｂ，６１Ｃ，６１Ｄ，６１Ｅ，６１Ｆを介して、それぞれラジアル軸受１３，１４，８２，８３，９２，９３に到達する。これにより、ラジアル軸受１３，１４，８２，８３，９２，９３は潤滑される。 Lubricating oil for lubricating the above-mentioned bearings circulates in the lubrication pipe 61. Lubricating oil flowing through the oil supply pipe 61 is supplied to the radial bearings 13, 14, 82, 83, 92, and 93 through oil supply pipes 61A, 61B, 61C, 61D, 61E, and 61F connected to the respective bearings. To reach. Thereby, the radial bearings 13, 14, 82, 83, 92, 93 are lubricated.
　ラジアル軸受１３，１４，８２，８３，９２，９３の潤滑に使用された潤滑油は、排油管路６２Ａ，６２Ｂ，６２Ｃ，６２Ｄ，６２Ｅ，６２Ｆを介して、排油管６２に向かって流通する。排油管６２に到達した潤滑油は、不図示のオイルフィルター等によって濾過される。該オイルフィルターによって濾過された潤滑油は、再び注油管６１に流通されて、それぞれの軸受の潤滑に供される。言い換えると、回転システム１００の潤滑油供給部６０は、所定の一方向に循環する管路を構成している。 The lubricating oil used to lubricate the radial bearings 13, 14, 82, 83, 92, 93 circulates toward the oil exhaust pipe 62 through the oil exhaust pipes 62A, 62B, 62C, 62D, 62E, 62F. The lubricating oil that has reached the oil drain pipe 62 is filtered by an oil filter (not shown) or the like. The lubricating oil filtered by the oil filter is circulated through the oil supply pipe 61 again and used for lubricating the respective bearings. In other words, the lubricating oil supply unit 60 of the rotation system 100 constitutes a pipeline that circulates in a predetermined direction.
　続いて、中間軸装置１の詳細な構成について、図２を参照して説明する。なお、図２中における図示左方は圧縮機８０側であり、図示右方はタービン９０側である。 Next, the detailed configuration of the intermediate shaft device 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 2, the left side in the figure is the compressor 80 side, and the right side in the figure is the turbine 90 side.
　図２に示すように、中間軸装置１は、中間軸本体１０と、中間軸本体１０を軸線回りに回転可能に支持する２つのラジアル軸受１３，１４と、タービン９０側にスラスト軸受１５と、これらを下方から支持する基台１６と、基台１６に固定されるとともに中間軸本体１０の全体を上方から覆うように形成された概ね箱体状の外装部材１７と、を有している。 As shown in FIG. 2, the intermediate shaft device 1 includes an intermediate shaft main body 10, two radial bearings 13 and 14 that rotatably support the intermediate shaft main body 10 around an axis, a thrust bearing 15 on the turbine 90 side, A base 16 that supports them from below, and a generally box-shaped exterior member 17 that is fixed to the base 16 and that covers the entire intermediate shaft main body 10 from above.
　中間軸本体１０は、圧縮機８０側の端部（第一端部）を含むとともに、ラジアル軸受１３によって支持される第一軸部１０Ａと、タービン９０側の端部（第二端部）を含むと共に、ラジアル軸受１４とスラスト軸受１５とによって摺動可能に支持される第二軸部１０Ｂと、第一軸部１０Ａと第二軸部１０Ｂとの間に設けられた大径部１０Ｃと、を有している。 The intermediate shaft main body 10 includes an end portion (first end portion) on the compressor 80 side, and includes a first shaft portion 10A supported by the radial bearing 13 and an end portion (second end portion) on the turbine 90 side. A second shaft portion 10B that is slidably supported by the radial bearing 14 and the thrust bearing 15, and a large-diameter portion 10C provided between the first shaft portion 10A and the second shaft portion 10B, have.
　第一軸部１０Ａは、外形視で概ね円柱状に形成されている。第一軸部１０Ａにおける圧縮機８０側の端部は、前述の第二カップリング７２を介して第一緩衝軸１１と接続されている。 The first shaft portion 10A is formed in a substantially columnar shape in external view. The end portion on the compressor 80 side in the first shaft portion 10 </ b> A is connected to the first buffer shaft 11 through the second coupling 72 described above.

In the vicinity of the upper end portion of the support member 18, an opening for supporting the first bearing support portion 20 described above is provided. The radial dimension of the opening is set to be substantially the same as the radial dimension on the outer periphery of the first bearing support portion 20. That is, the first bearing support portion 20 and the first bearing support portion 20 are arranged so that the outer peripheral surface of the first bearing support portion 20 is substantially in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the opening, and a fixing member (not shown) is provided. The support members 18 are supported so as not to be detached from each other.
　同様にして、中間軸本体１０の第二軸部１０Ｂを支持するラジアル軸受１４とスラスト軸受１５とは、第二軸受支持部２１と、支持部材１９とによって、一体に支持されている。 Similarly, the radial bearing 14 and the thrust bearing 15 that support the second shaft portion 10 </ b> B of the intermediate shaft body 10 are integrally supported by the second bearing support portion 21 and the support member 19.
　第二軸受支持部２１は、第一軸受支持部２０と同様に、外形視で円筒状に形成された部材である。第二軸受支持部２１の径方向内側における領域は中空となっており、該領域にはラジアル軸受１４とスラスト軸受とが配置されている。なお、第二軸受支持部２１の軸線方向における寸法は、第一軸受支持部２０の軸線方向における寸法よりも大きく設定されている。 The second bearing support portion 21 is a member formed in a cylindrical shape as viewed from the outside, like the first bearing support portion 20. A region on the radially inner side of the second bearing support portion 21 is hollow, and a radial bearing 14 and a thrust bearing are disposed in the region. The dimension in the axial direction of the second bearing support portion 21 is set larger than the dimension in the axial direction of the first bearing support portion 20.
　支持部材１９は、支持部材１８と同様に、基台１６から上方に向かって延在する厚肉板状の部材である。支持部材１９の上側の端部近傍には、第二軸受支持部２１を支持するための開孔が設けられている。該開孔の径方向寸法は、第二軸受支持部２１の外周における径方向寸法と概ね同一となるように設定されている。これにより、該開孔の内周面と、第二軸受支持部２１の外周面が当接するように配置されるとともに、不図示の固定部材を設けることによって、第二軸受支持部２１と支持部材１９は互いに脱落不能に支持されている。 The support member 19 is a thick plate-like member extending upward from the base 16 in the same manner as the support member 18.

　また、図１に基づいて前述したように、ラジアル軸受１３，１４には、潤滑油を流通させるための注油管６１が接続されている。注油管６１は、中間軸本体１０の下方で、概ね水平方向に沿って延在している。さらに、注油管６１における一方の端部は、注油管路６１Ｃを介してラジアル軸受１３に接続されている。同様にして、注油管６１における他方の端部は、注油管路６１Ｄを介してラジアル軸受１４に接続されている。 Further, as described above with reference to FIG. 1, the radial bearings 13 and 14 are connected to the lubrication pipe 61 for circulating the lubricating oil. The oil supply pipe 61 extends substantially along the horizontal direction below the intermediate shaft main body 10. Furthermore, one end of the oil supply pipe 61 is connected to the radial bearing 13 via an oil supply pipe 61C. Similarly, the other end of the oil supply pipe 61 is connected to the radial bearing 14 via an oil supply pipe 61D.
　したがって、上述の注油管路６１Ｃ，６１Ｄを介してラジアル軸受１３，１４に潤滑油が供給される。ラジアル軸受１３，１４を潤滑した後、潤滑油はこれらラジアル軸受１３，１４の外部に排出される。排出された潤滑油は、後述の外装部材１７の壁面に接続された排出管６２に向かって流通する。 Therefore, the lubricating oil is supplied to the radial bearings 13 and 14 through the above-described oil supply pipes 61C and 61D. After the radial bearings 13 and 14 are lubricated, the lubricating oil is discharged to the outside of the radial bearings 13 and 14. The discharged lubricating oil flows toward a discharge pipe 62 connected to a wall surface of an exterior member 17 described later.
　上述のように構成された中間軸本体１０、及び基台１６は、外形視で箱体状の外装部材１７によって覆われている。外装部材１７は、中間軸本体１０の上方に設けられた天板１７Ａと、天板１７Ａの両端縁に概ね直角に接続されるとともに、基台１６に向かって延在する第一側壁部１７Ｂと、第二側壁部１７Ｃと、を有している。さらに、天板１７Ａの長手方向における端縁と、第一側壁部１７Ｂ、第二側壁部１７Ｃの高さ方向におけるそれぞれの端縁とによって囲まれる平面には、壁面がそれぞれ設けられている。該壁面のいずれか一方には、図示手前方向に向かって延在する排出管６２が接続されている。 The intermediate shaft body 10 and the base 16 configured as described above are covered with a box-shaped exterior member 17 in an external view. The exterior member 17 includes a top plate 17A provided above the intermediate shaft main body 10, a first side wall portion 17B connected to both end edges of the top plate 17A at a substantially right angle, and extending toward the base 16. And the second side wall portion 17C. Furthermore, wall surfaces are respectively provided on the planes surrounded by the edge in the longitudinal direction of the top plate 17A and the respective edges in the height direction of the first side wall portion 17B and the second side wall portion 17C. A discharge pipe 62 extending toward the front side in the figure is connected to either one of the wall surfaces.
　さらに、天板１７Ａには、保守を行う際に開閉される２つのアクセス孔Ｈ１，Ｈ２、及びベント孔Ｈ３が設けられている。アクセス孔Ｈ１，Ｈ２は天板１７Ａの長手方向における両端縁の近傍に設けられた開孔部である。アクセス孔Ｈ１，Ｈ２は、外装部材１７Ａの内外を連通している。さらに、アクセス孔Ｈ１，Ｈ２には、その開孔寸法と概ね同じ寸法を有するハッチＬ１，Ｌ２によって閉塞される。ハッチＬ１，Ｌ２は、ボルト等を介してアクセス孔Ｈ１，Ｈ２の端縁に対して固定される。アクセス孔Ｈ１，Ｈ２は主として、第一軸受支持部２０，２１の保守、点検等に際して使用される。 Furthermore, the top plate 17A is provided with two access holes H1, H2 and a vent hole H3 that are opened and closed when maintenance is performed. The access holes H1 and H2 are opening portions provided in the vicinity of both end edges in the longitudinal direction of the top plate 17A. The access holes H1 and H2 communicate with the inside and outside of the exterior member 17A. Furthermore, the access holes H1 and H2 are closed by hatches L1 and L2 having substantially the same dimensions as the opening dimensions. The hatches L1 and L2 are fixed to the edges of the access holes H1 and H2 through bolts or the like. The access holes H1 and H2 are mainly used for maintenance and inspection of the first bearing support portions 20 and 21.
　ベント孔Ｈ３は、天板１７Ａの長手方向における中央に設けられた開孔部である。ベント孔Ｈ３は、外装部材１７Ａの内外を連通している。ベント孔Ｈ３は、その開孔寸法と概ね同じ寸法を有するハッチＬ３によって閉塞される。ハッチＬ３は、ボルト等を介してベント孔Ｈ３の端縁に対して固定される。ベント孔Ｈ３は主として、中間軸装置１の内部の圧力が上昇した際に、潤滑油の漏洩が生じることを抑制するために開放される。 The vent hole H3 is an opening provided in the center of the top plate 17A in the longitudinal direction. The vent hole H3 communicates the inside and outside of the exterior member 17A. The vent hole H3 is closed by a hatch L3 having substantially the same dimension as the opening dimension. The hatch L3 is fixed to the end edge of the vent hole H3 via a bolt or the like. The vent hole H3 is opened mainly to suppress the leakage of the lubricating oil when the pressure inside the intermediate shaft device 1 rises.
　次に、以上のように構成された回転システム１００、及び中間軸装置１の作用について説明する。
　まず、不図示の外部動力源によって圧縮機８０が始動すると、圧縮機８０に設けられた第一回転軸８１が回転を開始する。第一回転軸８１の回転は、第一カップリング７１を介して、第一緩衝軸１１に伝達される。 Next, the operation of the rotation system 100 configured as described above and the intermediate shaft device 1 will be described.
First, when the compressor 80 is started by an external power source (not shown), the first rotating shaft 81 provided in the compressor 80 starts to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 81 is transmitted to the first buffer shaft 11 via the first coupling 71.
　第一緩衝軸１１に伝達された第一回転軸８１の回転は、第二カップリング７２を介して中間軸本体１０に伝達される。続いて、中間軸本体１０の回転は、第三カップリング７３を介して、タービン９０の第二回転軸９１に伝達される。これにより、タービン９０は回転し、不図示の外部機器に対して出力を供給する。すなわち、圧縮機８０の回転はタービン９０に対して、概ね機械損失を伴うことなく伝達される。 The rotation of the first rotating shaft 81 transmitted to the first buffer shaft 11 is transmitted to the intermediate shaft main body 10 via the second coupling 72. Subsequently, the rotation of the intermediate shaft main body 10 is transmitted to the second rotating shaft 91 of the turbine 90 via the third coupling 73. As a result, the turbine 90 rotates and supplies output to an external device (not shown). That is, the rotation of the compressor 80 is transmitted to the turbine 90 with almost no mechanical loss.
　以上のように、本実施形態に係る回転システム１００では、圧縮機８０の第一回転軸８１と、タービン９０の第二回転軸９１を、中間軸本体１０を介して互いに接続することができる。したがって、圧縮機８０とタービン９０との間の離間距離を適切に維持することができる。 As described above, in the rotation system 100 according to the present embodiment, the first rotation shaft 81 of the compressor 80 and the second rotation shaft 91 of the turbine 90 can be connected to each other via the intermediate shaft body 10. Therefore, the separation distance between the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 can be appropriately maintained.
　ここで、例えば圧縮機８０とタービン９０とを、中間軸装置１を介さずに接続した場合は、両者の間に適切な距離を保つことができない。これにより、外部のケーブルや配管を敷設するに当たって、十分なスペースが確保できない等、機器の配置や保守性に制約が生じる。 Here, for example, when the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 are connected without the intermediate shaft device 1, an appropriate distance cannot be maintained between them. As a result, when laying external cables and pipes, restrictions are placed on the arrangement and maintainability of the equipment, such as inadequate space.
　しかしながら、本実施形態では、中間軸装置１を圧縮機８０とタービン９０との中間に設けることによって、適切なスペースを得ることができる。
　加えて、中間軸装置１における中間軸本体１０は、ラジアル軸受１３，１４、及びスラスト軸受１５からなる軸受装置によって支持されている。したがって、中間軸本体１０に生じる不安定振動が効果的に抑制される。 However, in the present embodiment, an appropriate space can be obtained by providing the intermediate shaft device 1 in the middle between the compressor 80 and the turbine 90.
In addition, the intermediate shaft body 10 in the intermediate shaft device 1 is supported by a bearing device including radial bearings 13 and 14 and a thrust bearing 15. Therefore, the unstable vibration generated in the intermediate shaft main body 10 is effectively suppressed.
　さらに、本実施形態における中間軸装置１では、中間軸本体１０におけるラジアル軸受１３，１４の間の領域には、大径部１０Ｃが設けられている。加えて、大径部１０Ｃは中実に形成されている。これにより、中間軸本体１０の重量を大きくすることができる。
　ここで、中間軸本体１０の重量が軽すぎる場合には、中間軸本体１０を支持するラジアル軸受１３，１４、及びスラスト軸受１５に作用する重力負荷が小さくなりすぎる。これによって、ラジアル軸受１３，１４、スラスト軸受１５の近傍領域で、中間軸本体１０に不安定振動が生じる可能性がある。
　しかしながら、本実施形態における中間軸本体１０には上述のような大径部１０Ｃが設けられていることから、軸受装置の近傍で生じる中間軸本体１０の不安定振動が抑制される。
　さらに、中間軸装置１における潤滑油供給部６０は、上述のように注油管６１、及び排油管６２を介して圧縮機８０、タービン９０における他の潤滑油供給部と接続されている。これにより、中間軸装置１に固有の潤滑油供給部を設けることなく、効果的、かつ経済的に中間軸装置１に潤滑油を供給することができる。
　さらに、本実施形態における中間軸装置１は、外装部材１７を有している。外装部材１７は中間軸装置１の全体を覆うように形成されている。これにより、中間軸本体１０や、軸受装置における潤滑油が外部に飛散する可能性が抑制される。加えて、回転する中間軸本体１０を外部に露出させずに済むため、保守作業時等における安全性をさらに向上させることができる。 Furthermore, in the intermediate shaft device 1 according to the present embodiment, a large diameter portion 10 </ b> C is provided in a region between the radial bearings 13 and 14 in the intermediate shaft main body 10. In addition, the large-diameter portion 10C is formed solid. Thereby, the weight of the intermediate shaft main body 10 can be increased.
Here, when the weight of the intermediate shaft main body 10 is too light, the gravity load acting on the radial bearings 13 and 14 and the thrust bearing 15 that support the intermediate shaft main body 10 becomes too small. As a result, unstable vibration may occur in the intermediate shaft main body 10 in the vicinity of the radial bearings 13 and 14 and the thrust bearing 15.
However, since the intermediate shaft body 10 according to this embodiment is provided with the large-diameter portion 10C as described above, unstable vibration of the intermediate shaft body 10 that occurs in the vicinity of the bearing device is suppressed.
Furthermore, the lubricating oil supply unit 60 in the intermediate shaft device 1 is connected to the other lubricating oil supply units in the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 via the oil supply pipe 61 and the oil discharge pipe 62 as described above. Accordingly, the lubricating oil can be effectively and economically supplied to the intermediate shaft device 1 without providing a lubricating oil supply unit unique to the intermediate shaft device 1.
Further, the intermediate shaft device 1 in the present embodiment has an exterior member 17. The exterior member 17 is formed so as to cover the entire intermediate shaft device 1. Thereby, the possibility that the lubricating oil in the intermediate shaft main body 10 and the bearing device is scattered outside is suppressed. In addition, since it is not necessary to expose the rotating intermediate shaft main body 10 to the outside, safety during maintenance work or the like can be further improved.
　以上、本発明の実施形態について図面を参照して詳述したが、具体的な構成はこの実施形態に限られるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲の設計変更等も含まれる。
　例えば、回転システム１００における第一回転機械、第二回転機械として、本実施形態では圧縮機８０とタービン９０とを用いた例を説明した。しかし、中間軸装置１の適用対象はこれに限定されず、第一回転機械、又は第二回転機械として、電動モータ等を用いることも可能である。 As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was explained in full detail with reference to drawings, the concrete structure is not restricted to this embodiment, The design change etc. of the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention are included.
For example, in the present embodiment, an example in which the compressor 80 and the turbine 90 are used as the first rotating machine and the second rotating machine in the rotating system 100 has been described. However, the application target of the intermediate shaft device 1 is not limited to this, and an electric motor or the like can be used as the first rotating machine or the second rotating machine.
　本発明に係る中間軸装置は、ガスタービン等の回転機械からなる回転システムに適用することができる。 The intermediate shaft device according to the present invention can be applied to a rotating system including a rotating machine such as a gas turbine.
